About this map

Antelope Flats dominates this high plains landscape in eastern Adams County, where the topography is defined by a series of north-flowing intermittent drainage systems. Small creeks such as Goose Cr, Mule Cr, and Rock Cr cut through the terrain, illustrating the natural water runoff patterns of the region. The map reveals a highly structured section-line road network, including thoroughfares like Bradbury Krebs Rd and Palestine Rd, which partition the land into the traditional grid of the Public Land Survey System.

Evidence of local infrastructure and land use is found at the Bijou Basin Airport in the southeastern quadrant, while the name Perless Mine Rd hints at the area's extraction history. Water management for agriculture or livestock is noted by the presence of the Nile Ditch in the northeast. This 2019 survey documents a landscape where traditional prairie reaches meet modern rural development and essential water management features.
